Healthcare I'll push for stronger oversight when rural facilities are at risk, and work to ensure that essential services—including emergency and maternity care—remain accessible to everyone in the district. Education I will work to expand access to Alabama's First-Class Pre-K program, increase funding to match community demand, and prioritize rural and underserved areas when new classrooms are added. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I will work to get our prisons and jails where they need to be by supporting humane, rehabilitative prison programs, advocating for restoring voting rights for incarcerated people, and opposing policies that prioritize building more prisons over investing in people. Infrastructure / Transportation I will fight to protect and expand voting access: including protections for elderly and disabled voters, and measures that make participating in democracy simpler, not harder. Education Our public schools need the resources to support early learning, because investing in children is one of the highest-return investments we can make. Healthcare Expanded healthcare. Criminal Justice / Public Safety A criminal justice system that prevents crime rather than just punishing it. Abortion / Contraception I will work to restore access to reproductive rights. Housing Affordable housing. Education Strong public schools.
